Noam Chomsky on George Orwell, the Suppression of Ideas and the Myth of American Exceptionalism
Democracynow.org - In a Democracy Now! special, we spend the hour with Noam Chomsky, the world-renowned political dissident, linguist, author and institute professor emeritus at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he’s taught for more than half a century. Chomsky has written more than 100 books, including his latest, "Because We Say So," a collection of his monthly columns. On Saturday, Chomsky spoke before a sold-out audience of nearly 1,000 people at The New School’s John L. Tishman Auditorium in New York City. In a speech titled “On Power and Ideology,” he discussed the persistence of U.S. exceptionalism, Republican efforts to torpedo the Iran nuclear deal, and the normalization of U.S.-Cuba relations.

Noam Chomsky and George Carlin on Republicans and Social Security
Republicans want desperately to privatize Social Security so that their Wall Street/banker friends can have your safety-net money for their financial schemes, all the while wanting to sink more and more taxpayer money into the already massive "defense" spending. Republicans also appear to be attempting to demonize the term "entitlements" so that we equate Social Security, along with "welfare," as "Liberal" entitlement programs to be viewed as the internal "danger" facing the American way of life.
"The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly . . . it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over."
[Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Minister of Propaganda]
Noam Chomsky, Institute Professor and Professor (Emeritus) in the Department of Linguistics & Philosophy at MIT, where he has worked for over 50 years comments
on the Republican's Party's ongoing effort to privatize the Social Security fund.
Quoted from the video:
"Social Security's not in any crisis...the trust fund alone will fully pay benefits for another thirty years or so...to worry about a possible problem thirty years from now which can incidentally be fixed with a little bit of tampering here and there as was done in 1983 -- to worry about that makes absolutely no sense unless you're trying to destroy the program. It's a very successful program, a large number of people rely on it...very low administrative costs, extremely efficient and no burden on the deficit, it doesn't add to the deficit."
"The effort to try to prevent the Social Security program...that's just a hidden way of trying to undermine and destroy it. Now there has been a lot of opposition to it since the 1930's on the part of sectors of extreme wealth and privilege, especially financial capital -- they don't like it for several reasons. One is, for the rich it's meaningless...another is if the financial institutions, the insurance companies can get their hands on this huge financial resource -- for example, if it's privatized in some way or vouchers - that's a huge bonanza, they'll have trillions of dollars to play with -- the banks, the investment firms, and so on."
"But, I think, myself, there's a more subtle reason they're opposed to it...the Social Security's based on a principle -- it's based on the principle that you care about other people -- you care whether the widow across town, the disabled widow's going to be able to have food to eat. And that's a notion you have to drive out of peoples heads -- the idea of solidarity, sympathy, mutual support -- that's doctrinally dangerous. The preferred doctrine's are just care about yourself - don't care about anyone else. That's a very good way to trap and control people. And the very idea that we're in it together, that we care about each other, that we have responsibility for one another -- that's sort of frightening to those who want a society which is dominated by power, authority, wealth, in which people are passive and obedient. And I think that's a considerable part of the drive on the part of small privileged sectors to undermine a very efficient, very effective system on which a large part of the population relies -- actually relies more than ever...they have nothing to else to rely on but the pittance they get from Social Security. To take that away would be just disastrous."

“If you are an ordinary person, then you can prepare yourself for war by moving to the countryside and building a farm, but you must take guns with you, as the hordes of starving will be roaming. Also, even though the elite will have their safe havens and specialist shelters, they must be just as careful during the war as the ordinary civilians, because their shelters can still be compromised.”

“The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is, perhaps, the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banks can in fact inflate, mint and un-mint the modern ledger-entry currency.” Major L L B Angus
The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent on its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of the people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.

"Debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers.
This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world.
By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."
